What do you think of the name Anastasia? What would be a nice middle name?

I love it! I wouldn't go with something one syllable for a middle name because it sounds too choppy, but definitely no more than two syllables.

Anastasia Janine
Anastasia Renee
Anastasia Diane
Anastasia Chloe
Anastasia Zoe
Anastasia Nicole
Anastasia Lucille
Anastasia Leslie

It reminds me of Disney movies, but still a nice name.

It's not for everyone, but I like it, and it has plenty of nickname potential for those who don't.

I actually think it sounds best with another kind of over-the-top name.

Anastasia Celeste
Anastasia Delilah
Anastasia Gabrielle
Anastasia Giselle
Anastasia Leah
Anastasia Melanie
Anastasia Miranda
Anastasia Naomi
Anastasia Sophia
Anastasia Stephania
Anastasia Theodora
Anastasia Victoria

I adore it! But I haven't been able to think of any mns that I like with it.

Hmmm, Anastasia Violet? It doesn't really sound right because I kinda of think that a more Russian-sounding mn would go better.

I actually like the name Anastasia, because of the story of the princess, but because it's really only for the meaning, I'd only use it as a middle name. I can't really think of a good middle name, but to me, I think it would sound best with a one-syllable name. Anastasia is so long and dramatic, you really wouldn't need much more.

I like Anastasia or Anastasiya and I only like it pronounced Anna-Stah-See-Ah, at which point its so long that only a one or two syllable name would work.

Anastasia June
Anastasia Maeve
Anastasia Ruth
Anastasia Jeanne
Anastasia Camille
Anastasia Lisette

If I ever used it, I'd probably use Anastasia Rae.

LOL my ex's kid is named Anastasia Violet.

My father wanted to name me Anastasia, and we considered it for the current little critter. But I like the Ukranian pronounciation (An-a-STAZ-ee-a, and hubby didn't like it with our last name.

I love it though.

As far as middle names, we like Anastasia Ilona, which is just so very Byzantine.

it's alright. I have a friend who is Anastasia Alta, which I hate as a combo. so not that. ;)

I LOVE the name. My baby daughter's name is Anastasia Sophia. Her nickname is Ana. Everyone always oohs and ahs over the name. The name, in my opinion, needs a middle name that can hold it's own.

it's a nice name and would be good standing alone.

i can't think of anything that really fits... maybe anastasia leigh?

[rowan-belle.livejournal.com]

I think it's nice. It used to be one of my tops.

Anastasia May is nice.

I love Anastasia and I always have; it's been my favorite girls' name for as long as I can remember. I like some of the others' suggestions (Anastasia Celeste, Anastasia Naomi, Anastasia Theodora, Anastasia Camille/Anastasia Camilla, Anastasia Elizabeth). With Anastasia, I think it's best to stay with a classic name spelled the traditional way, because the name is so regal that something on the simple, filler, and/or modern side of the spectrum would be a disgrace to the name.
